Animal - Prints: FELINE

Kanye West and Liv Tyler battled it out for who wore the Givenchy Rottweiler tee better and Hanneli Mustaparta repped crazy cat ladies everywhere in her cropped Opening Ceremony cat knit. Since then, the 'literal animal print' has taken over streets. Animals also took over various Fashion Weeks! Soon, Proenza Schouler handed out ballcaps with embroidered cats at their spring 2013 collection’s after-party & leave it to Man Repeller's Leandra Medine, to make the beaded sweater even cuter after she restyled it with a pair of boyfriend jeans on the set of Moda Operandi’s photoshoot of the collection. From outside the fashion tents we’ve also spotted animals on everything. Suits, bracelets, pants, and sweaters – there’s not a surface that hasn’t been emblazoned with an exotic or household animal. Yeap, these pieces actually feature the animal itself! So how do you pull the trend off without looking too garish? Opt for a piece that doesn’t feature too much of colour, with a neutral base like this simple tiger face tee. If you plan to “go wild”, do it with your top & stick to basic coloured bottoms! Here, I wore the tee with leather pants! Also, try to avoid mixing too many prints and patterns! The pop of Neon was a last minute add-on, mainly cause, it was designed by my Bestie, and is a favourite piece of mine! *grins* Also, apologies for being m.i.a for a while. I had exams and stuff going on. (My Bestie got married, Yeap!)
